Handbook of Feminist Research Methodologies in Management and Organization Studies

Edited by Saija Katila, Adjunct Professor of Organization and Management and Senior Lecturer, Department of Management Studies, Aalto University School of Business, Finland, Susan Meriläinen, Professor of Management, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Lapland, Finland and Emma Bell, Professor of Leadership, Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden

‘In this foray through Feminist Research Methodologies in Management and Organization Studies, Katila, Meriläinen and Bell have managed to astutely show the plurality, richness and political urgency of employing feminist methods that challenge the nature and process of knowledge production. The book is populated with many of my favourite writers and feminists who deftly show the complexity and possibility in feminist research. Stretching these horizons is essential for broadening and deepening our understanding of organizations and creating better worlds that benefit us all. It certainly succeeds in its aim to provide inspiration and support to scholars interested in feminist methodologies and is a must-read for those working in this space.’
